Company called saying they were sending me a free watch for my recent subscription. They said I was a finalist to win $25,000. They also wanted to send me three other free subscriptions for a year. They asked if I was familiar with these magazines, I said yes, which sounded like they recorded it. I then said I didn't want anything from them and hung up. They knew my name when they called but I didn't provide any address or personal information.

Caller advises you won $5.5 million dollars but needs $750.00 processing fee to release funds. Wants money order sent to Merchant Bank, Kathy Jones, 7200 North 7th 2t, Phoenix Ar. 85220. We noticed caller used 970-323-4929 as his phone but on two calls 876-583-6280 (Jamaica Area Code) and 401-351-4056 Rhode Island area code while claiming 970-323-4929 was his actual phone Colorado Area Code. We didn't fall for it but just wanted to report activity

CONSTANTLY (2-3 times per day) receiving email after email. Emails alternate between telling me that I have won something,or that I am fully registered, next email will tell me I have to complete my registration or I will be eliminated from the contest, Additionally they are constantly harassing me to make another purchase.

This company is out of control, and harasses members of the public

Received a call from a Susana Duncan from Publishers Clearing House. She said I won $255,000 plus a Mercedes. She transferred me to a Matthew White who said someone would be coming to my house to deliver the prize. They asked for my package number, so that they could send my information to a lawyer. Then he asked how far away I lived from a Walmart so that I could fill out a form with 6 easy questions and then get a money gram for $610 to send to them. He asked if I was dressed and ready to answer the door for when the money arrives. He told me I had to have cash and give a money gram number to them.

I was told I had won second place in a recent publishers clearing house contest. I was asked to call back the number that was calling to verify the number & offer was legit. I chose to NOT call that number back.

I also reported this scam to the Maine State Attorney General's Consumer office.

Complainant was called by a Publishers Clearing House Agent named Dave Sawyer who told him he had won 2.5 million dollars. To get the money he was told to go to Walmart and wire $550 to the Walmart in Weymouth, MA. After sending the money he was instructed to call 518-557-7291 to speak with a woman named Mrs. Vanessa Williams to let her know so they could arrange for the Prize Patrol to bring the money. He was also given the name of a lawyer named Dave Sawyer.

I have had two calls to my cell phone from Publishers Clearing House. Callers name is David Moore, Their phone number is 484-464-4842. On my caller ID and he gave me the number. Stated I won $9,5 million. I would receive $7000 a week until October this year. I think that is what he said. They wanted $950 upfront payment. Filing fee. Requested cash. Wired. Wanted me to get a senders form from Walmart. Once they got the money there would be people here at my house at 2:00. I know it is a scam. He gave me badge number 1825. I did not send any money. I wanted to report it so a senior would get scammed.

I received a phone call and was told I won the Publisher's Clearinghouse sweepstakes.  The caller asked if I had entered the sweepstakes and I said "No." He then asked if I shopped at Wal Mart.  I said "yes" and he said I was automatically entered. He said I should have received a letter in the mail. When I told him I needed to check my mail and asked for his name and phone number so I could call him back, he hung up on me.

I was called by a woman and man, Andrew Goldberg from Publishers Clearing House and told that I had won 1.5 million dollars & a Mercedes. My claim number was 950770155 and it would be delivered to Walmart. I was to go to Walmart and call them back as I needed to pay $155 in taxes. I should tell no one as once you do everyone is your friend and they will be after the money. They would call be back with further instructions later.
